At seventeen, Yao Guang entered a campus singing competition. At eighteen, Hao Shi Entertainment signed her and launched her as a member of a girl group. She was young and riding high, thinking that with a little hard work, she could enjoy smooth sailing in the entertainment industry. Who could have guessed that the group would flop after just a few years, and that every show she acted in would hit a new ratings low? Then she offended a powerful figure and was sent straight into cold storage, where she sat around at home for years. With only one year left on her contract, she took her agent's advice and decided to develop a career in acting, hoping to return to the entertainment industry through her performances!
Antagonist: I hear Yao Guang is going to act. She's a box-office poison. Everything she appears in flops.
Her first web series as the lead becomes a huge hit, and she turns the negative reviews around.
Antagonist: ???? Wasn't she supposed to be box-office poison?
Yao Guang's first series is adapted from the hugely popular costume-fantasy novel The Tale of the Demon Consort. Before filming and after it airs, the book fans' attitudes are like two different people!
Before filming: Trash! Does she really think she can play a great beauty looking like that? She's ruining the original!
After it airs: Sob, from today on Yao Guang is my daughter! This is the best adaptation ever! Anyone who says otherwise will have to answer to me!
Yao Guang auditions for a new project by Wan Heng, an agent to an award-winning actress. She transforms from a vicious supporting character into a wise female lead, and the two of them, both weighed down by misfortune, become allies. Together, they escape the mire, cross a field of thorns, and build their dreams into a towering edifice, one step at a time, reaching out to pluck the stars.
My first original work. This little panda is begging for follows and comments, please, please! Every comment and reply makes me so happy. Thank you to everyone willing to read this book.
This book should be an ensemble story.
From the career angle: Yao Guang and Wan Heng pursue their careers and dreams.
From the romance angle: Yao Guang and Rong Hui, a young actor who has been her fan for years, enjoy an older-woman-younger-man romance.
From the friendship (girls' love) angle: Yao Guang and Xu Zhimang, her junior fellow disciple and a fellow CP fan, weather hardships together like sisters.
P.S. The characters in this book are not based on real people. Even if anyone seems similar, please don't say so. I'm afraid of getting scolded by fans.
Theme: Use light to erase injustice, and crown our dreams with the radiance of the stars, sun, and moon.
